Vinyl Lettering

January 13, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 6 Comments

I am trying to start this year with a more organised approach to life. I have bought all the school supplies and covered all the school books. It was an easier process this year as I will only have one teen left at school. The other one will be starting his engineering degree (I’m a very proud Mum!)

My word for 2012 is Update – i.e. modernize and refresh. I want to update my eating and exercise habits, update our home, and update my goals. With this in mind, I wanted to organise a few things to update my workstation at the day job to make it more personalised. We have to supply our own tea/coffee, so some vinyl lettering was in order.

I used the Cricut and the Tie the Knot Cartridge, to cut a Monogram for my coffee mug.

I used From the Kitchen Cartridge to cut a label for a tea cannister.

Next, I hope to find some prints to decorate the workstation. I found some lovely free printables over at The Handmade Home. – love the camper vans.

For another vinyl project, check out our Moustache Glasses.

    I love the new year and the feeling of getting organised. Good luck to your engineering student, my son has just completed his second year and really enjoys it.
    I love the labels I have been tossing up about getting either a Cricut or a Sihloutte.

    We hit Officeworks yesterday for school supplies! I always think you are a little more productive when you have a few personalised touches around.
